Tips to help you
save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To
help minimise the energy used, follow the advice
below:
• Start by ironing the fabrics that require the
lowest ironing temperature.
Check the recommended ironing temperature
in the label on the garment.
• Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
• Try to Iron the fabrics while they are still damp
and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be
generated from the fabrics rather than the iron.
If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing
them, set the tumble drier on the ‘iron dry’
programme.
• If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the
steam regulator completely.
Advice on disposal
Our goods come in optimised packaging. This
basically consists in using non-contaminating
materials which should be handed over to the
local waste disposal service as secondary raw
materials. Your local town council can give you
information about how to dispose of obsolete
appliances.
This appliance is labelled in
accordance with European Directive
2002/96/EG concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic
equipment - WEEE).
The guideline determines the
framework for the return and
recycling of used appliances as applicable
throughout the EU.

The iron begins to
smoke when
switched on.
• During first use: certain
components on the appliance
have been lightly greased at the
factory and may produce a little
smoke when initially heated.
• During subsequent use: the
soleplate may be soiled.
• This is completely normal and will
stop after a short while.
• Clean the soleplate according to the
cleaning instructions in this manual.
Water flows through
the holes on the
soleplate.
• The steam function is being used
before it has reached the correct
temperature.
• The water is condensing inside
the pipes because steam is being
used for the first time or has not
been used for a long time.
• Reduce the steam flow when ironing
at low temperatures.
• Point the iron away from the ironing
area and press the steam release
button until steam is produced.
